StorytellerThe 3rd & 4th centuries were a difficult time in China. The Jin Dynasty ruled the land, but Barbarian invasions caused its people to be very unhappy, so the Jin Dynasty abandoned their country and travelled far away.During that time, a boy named Zu Ti was born, and as he grew older he decided to study sword fighting. Zu Ti and his childhood friend, Liu Kun, cared a lot for their land, and they shared the same dream of fighting the Barbarians and working for the Jin Dynasty one day.

StorytellerOne night, as they were sleeping, Zu Ti was woken up by the noise of a rooster. He kicked Liu Kun awake and suggested that any time they heard the rooster crow, they get up and practise sword fighting. Liu Kun agreed and they started to practise. Over time, as they worked and practised each morning, they improved until they were excellent fighters.Soon, their dreams became true. Zu Ti and Liu Kun served as generals for the Jin family and defeated the Barbarians in many battles. Together they helped the Jin Dynasty return to China, showing that their hard work changed their land.
